the modifications are permanently done with adhesive, welding and bolting ..

@Ram, I agree that if there's an accident any compensation would be paid. The jeep would have been registered long before the mod's - most of these jeeps are old ones, which may not be able to take the rigours of daily usage. I havent seen any such vehicles being used for regular commutes. I will not be surprised if these contraptions dont have a PUC cert or a FC.

With these mods, a vehicle becomes un-gainly and cumbersome to drive. These vehicles may see some usage only during the festive & marriage seasons. For the rest of the time, using the vehicle with the mods will be painful. For both these reasons, I feel the mods are not permanent - are at least removable.

Considering the use that these moded vehicles are put to, I doubt the authorities foist any rules & regulations on these. That said, if at any point these vehciles are seen on the roads in such a garb, it could be possibly heading to/from a function. Atleast that's the excuse that would be put forth.

But if the mods are of a permanent, then they are not used at other times.

don't know whether the lancer should be on this thread or not. have seen quite a number of lancers with that kind of spoiler. and if its about the paint, then its personal choice. but the smoked lamps are looking good.
